Leave a Review Retro Goal
Logic?
The only few problems I have with this game is like for one, every 4-5 star player wants good training facilities, don’t get me wrong I get that but like if you switch teams it’s hard to get new players because you have to max out the facilities or else you don’t get any players you want. Retro bowl was nothing like that, you could get any player you want without maxing out anything which was much easier and not as complicated as retro goal. Lastly, if you go to a really good team, you should already have great players, for example Bayern, Barca etc you switch to those teams and neither of them have a single good player. Make it make sense! I’m not saying they should be packed but like even if it’s just a 4-5 star defender or midfielder it would be better than nothing. I’m playing as Bayern and I’m literally getting dominated by teams that are trash in real life and I have no good players like what? I like the game yes, but it has a lot of flaws that kinda make the game sour and make you a bit upset. I don’t like how you have to buy the whole version after ten games, retro bowl was a great game that didn’t force you to do that. I did have a 5 star striker and he literally can’t score, all he does is hit crossbar. If you fix these mistakes or at least make the game have a better logic than I would have given it a 5 star.Show lessgregmmm74
Doesn’t live up to its potential
I love retro bowl and I love to play soccer with friends, so I downloaded retro goal and tried it out and immediately though on opening “Wow this is incredibly different” which is good that it differentiates itself from retro bowl, then I started the tutorial, the money system: not very good, it feels like things are more overpriced, but I did like the fact that it actually took time to build up your stadium and boost player morale, now here’s the thing that really burns me, ITS NOT FREE TO PLAY!!!! You have to pay to even play after 10 games?? It’s also incredibly pay to win, controls are harder and players stop moving after they receive a pass, as well as corner kicks being impossible. To summarize, retro bowl is better for free to play, this is more the pro all done with retro bowl ready for something else game, looks good on paper just done badly.Show lessMoff Gideon Enthusiast
Good not great
This game has a lot of potential. It is a fun game to play, the controls are good and the gameplay just feels great. My only problems are the way the transfers and other clubs are made. It is tougher to get good players in this game which I think is a good idea, but it is almost impossible to do anything without an elite player. I had to buy a good player in order to have a chance to ascend to first division, other wise it would not have been possible. Once I ascended I had a job offer from Barcelona which I wanted to take, but the game makes you start the team from zero which makes no sense at all. Why would I want to go to a big club and have to start from scratch. Retro bowl allowed you to move to a different team and keep the players that were already included. Overall good game, just lacking some of the great qualities that retro bowl had.Show lessEPYC1999
Flawed But Still Fun
Having a ton of fun with this game, but there are a few things that keep me from giving it 5 stars. My biggest gripe is the way the game handles you switching teams. As it stands currently there’s absolutely no reason to take another job with a different team. Whether you accept a job with a big name premier league side or a 2nd division French club you get stuck with a crappy squad and no good facilities like you’re back at square one. I made the switch on my first team and I’m really regretting it now. My other big complaint is the way the game handles defense or lack there of. With no way to control your defenders you just have to pray the computer is nice to you. If they can update those 2 I’d happily give this 5 stars.Show lessJStren
Retro Goal is Amazing
Retro goal is a game I enjoy playing when I have time. I enjoy the game and how it’s ran and how I can choose any team and I didn’t mind paying for the full version. Passing and running is good and the mechanics work well but there are some things that i think would make the game better. The graphics could be a little more better or the saturation, celebrations should be added were we can control them, proper champions league and other league stages, international teams and World Cup leagues and different stadiums, upgrade your players to make them faster and realistic when on extreme mode, making the game look more happy instead of a blue screen in the backgrounds and running and even adding a defense feature where you can defend. Overall the game is good but I feel like making the game more realistic would attract more people and maybe adding players we know to some teams to would also work. Overall Very Good Game Thank You!!Show lesspsksnendici
Fun to play except…
This game is great overall but the overall motive for making it seems more greedier than retro bowl. You have to spend a lot money and the costs for upgrading things in the front office seem high. The costs of players as well seem much higher than in retro bowl and I’m not just referring to the actual price. Proportionately the prices seem unreasonably higher. It’s really fun to play but it makes no sense that you are practically punished for leaving your team to go to an elite team. When you leave to the teams doing well the players you are handed are absolute garbage and you need to spend more just to buy new players which makes no sense because the team was already doing well.Show lesslopnfjd
Great potential, but bookings and injuries need to be adjusted
This is a fun retro game with tremendous potential. The game play is great for a phone - fun but not to crazy to make it frustrating. In addition, the club management functions are outstanding. Buying/selling players and managing the club throughout the season are exciting and well done.
The biggest problem with this game is the ridiculous booking and injury rate. Im averaging a red card per game and an injury every few games. None of my players have poor traits; the AI generates the fouls. It negatively affects the entire game; I'm constantly playing with 9-10 men and my best players are out for 2-3 game stretches. Add on an injury every few games and its hard to get ahead without spending tons of money to buy a bunch of subs. I don't mind spending money on good games, but I don't want to feel like its wasted.
I would rate this game 5-stars if the developers fixed the booking and injury rate.Show lessTerployal
Great game, needs some work
When I first downloaded this game I had a pretty good understanding of what it would be, because I downloaded Retro Bowl first. The graphics are very good, and they match the style of a retro video game. Good controls, pretty easy to understand and they don’t take so long to get the hand of.
One thing I dislike is the fact that you cannot customize the players like in Retro Bowl. In Retro Bowl you were able to change the players jerseys, and even their name, but in Retro Goal it seems like you can’t do that. It would be a fun things to add just to make it a bit more fun, and a bit more entertaining too.
Finally, I think the referees give WAY too many cards. Like one time I got 2 red cards in 4 minutes, don’t you think that is a little bit rough? I understand that there needs to be red and yellow cards to make the game more entertaining, but it would be nice for my players not to get 4 yellow cards in 3 minutes.
Other than that, good game! Keep up the great work!Show lessbest toutube ever
Great time killer
First off, this developer has proven very consistent once again. Like retro bowl before it, this game is a great way to kill some time like if you’re at school or some other place. Gameplay is fluid and complex yet also simple at the same time. Despite being a completely different sport, this game is similar to retro bowl as far as team management goes and is even improved in several areas. Graphics are improved and there are so many team options to explore and so many things to win. My only criticism is the demo system for the base game where you can only play ten games before you have to pay, but if you have a dollar it a a worthwhile purchase to play the game forever afterwards.Show lessBadMobileGameHater_75
Needs just a few tweaks!
I really enjoy both this game and retro bowl. However, there are a couple of aspects of this game that I wish were more similar to retro bowl. Some minor improvements that I think would benefit the game would be:
1. Allow for creation of a team and place it in a respective league.
2. Allow for you to see which team you selected at the get-go (I selected a team at random and now I can’t complete certain achievements because I don’t know my “favorite team”…
3. Allow for you to view the standings of other leagues and for you to qualify for tournaments your new team qualified for last year should you join them next season- this way you’ll know if you are joining a team eligible for champions league etc.
4. Being back “dynamic” difficulty setting.Show lessgoalazon
